Wants to shut off and restart?

My Lumix DMC-LS70 camera keeps displaying the msg that I need to shut the camera off, then turn it back on. It does this after I will take a picture. What is going wrong and how do I fix this? I'm having a baby next month so I would like to fix it soon :-)

After months of wondering and I didnt want to mail it to Panasonic and pay $180 just for them to just look at it, my Uncle-in law tried a whole new set of batteries and it works perfectly. sooo I'm charging the other ones, and seeing what it does in my camera, and if it does it again, the old ones are being pitched.

Hello,It will not work through USB like a standard webcam. Ls-70 only lets you access camera memory card/onboard memory when connected via USB. However you
could connect the camera video-out socket to a PC with graphics card
with video capture function. Some cards with video capture work with
skype (check this URL:http://forum.skype.com/index.php?showtopic=41101 )There are also various software solutions which can fool your webchat client into thinking that video capture stream is actually an output of a usb webcam. (Try google for "video capture into skype".At the moment this seems to be the only easy way to use LS-70 as webcam.
